Working with a pendulum requires concentration and peace. Choose a place where you will not be disturbed. Calm down and relax.

Choose a mat over which the pendulum will answer your questions.

Get to know the pendulum: hold the chain between your thumb and forefinger. Ask the pendulum a question and say: "show me yes" - watch the movement. Ask the pendulum questions and tell it to show NO and MAYBE and watch the movement again.
Start by asking simple questions that you know the answer to, then try questions that can be answered with YES/NO.
Don't forget to CLEAN THE PENDULUM after each use - rinse it with lukewarm water and recharge it in moonlight or with smoke.
